Paroles de Minor Blues

I sing these blues In a minor key Everybody in town's trying to backbite me I love my man Better than I do myself Now he's lovin' somebody else That's why I'm singing these minor blues Early this mornin' On the break of day I felt the pillow where my daddy used to lay He left last night Didn't say why Didn't even kiss his mama goodbye That's why I've got these minor blues I combed his hair Manicured his nails Took my money and got him out of jail I brought him coffee I brought him tea Brought him everything but the jailhouse key That's why I'm singing these minor blues I sing these blues In a lowdown key To let you know how he mistreated me Get up in the morning Work hard all day Come home at night and give him all my pay That's why I'm singing these minor blues Nobody knows The trouble I seen Nobody knows my misery Keep on singing to me This minor key Maybe someday he'll come back to me That's why I'm singing these minor blues
